Alaves – Sevilla

Alavés, sitting third in the table with ten points from three wins, a draw and a loss and a healthy +6 goal difference (11‑5), will host Sevilla, who sit fifth on the same tally but with a slimmer +2 margin (8‑6). Both sides have identical records, so the clash promises a tight battle for the crucial third‑place spot. Alavés will look to exploit their superior scoring rate, while Sevilla will rely on a tighter defence to edge the encounter. The head‑to‑head will be a test of who can convert their modest advantage into three points and move up the standings.
